-- Thank you for checking in. I actually had a horrible experience with your company and do not plan on using it in the future. I had an appointment for Friday December 5th and the person was supposed to arrive between 8-9AM. When he had not arrived by 930AM, I called your offices and spoke to Wayne. Wayne apologized and said he would get back to me. He never called back, instead I received a call from the window washer about 30 minutes later. That guy told me he decided he should not come because it was raining outside and they can't wash windows (he should have called earlier) I told him that we had a photo shoot at our house with a magazine on Sunday and i would still like the indoor windows washed and that we have a few outside windows that are covered by awnings that he could wash. He didn't want to do that, but I convinced because I really needed the windows cleaned for this shoot. He finally agreed and said he would be there in an hour. 2 and a half hours later he never arrived and I called the office again. Wayne again picked up, and at this point I was so frustrated that I asked to cancel the service and explained why. I said this in a calm voice and was not yelling or overtly upset on the phone. I was trying to be reasonable. Wayne did not offer any apology and said that is fine, and immediately hung up. I was a little shocked that he did not try to help me out. I called several other companies to try to get someone last minute, when I couldn't, I finally decided to call you guys. I left a message and never received a return phone call. We ended up having to wash the windows ourselves though we were willing to pay someone to help us out.

After the second job he performed when he replaced another part of my roof that wasn't the main roof, I still had a leak (it was in an area that he had not replaced so it wasn't as a result of his work) and yet again, he agreed to come back and check it out to see what the problem was (for free).

On the day of installation, the crew arrived an hour early (fine for us, but felt a little bad for the neighbors at 7 am with all of the commotion). Mr. Huang led the team and was extremely good. He took pride in his work \"We are Pella installers.\" Kept everything moving along and answered all of our questions. Team was mindful of flowers outside and keeping things clean inside.

I have seen everything, good and bad and have taken care of thousands problem deck and porches. I see what most don't even think about. Sounds like a sales pitch? It is, lol. I am 60 yo and still love getting dirty and just well, know my stuff. Lot's of referrals if needed. Best to Please Text Me First and tell me your name! Too many solicitor calls and I rarely answer if I don't know the number, which happens every day, all day. I will promptly text you back and ask You, what a good time to call back might be. Located In Mt Airy, Frederick County, but will travel to Howard, Carroll and MoCo, no prob.

FAQs for awning service projects in North Potomac, MD
The cost of an awning is $1,400 to $4,400 on average. However, this cost could be as low as $100 or as high as $7,500, depending on a few factors. The type of awning you choose, the size you need, and your location all affect your overall cost.
For example, portable awnings you can put up and take down yourself range from $100 to $400, whereas motorized awnings are more luxurious and cost between $2,000 and $3,500.
When contacting an awning installer, there are a few questions to ask to make sure the process runs smoothly. To have the awning of your dreams installed to shade you from the sun, ask your installer some of these questions to get you started:
How long will this project take to complete?
Do you have insurance coverage?
Will I need a building permit for this project? Who is responsible for obtaining this?
Do you have references from previous clients?
Do you have photos of previously completed projects?
Awnings can take anywhere from two hours to two days to install once made. Retractable awnings are generally more lightweight and simpler to install than metal ones, which take longer. Even if you’ve chosen a retractable awning, it’s best to plan for a two-day installation timeframe to give your installer plenty of time to ensure proper installation and operation.
Awnings are either fixed or retractable and can be paired with a variety of cover materials. Fixed awnings are a permanent outdoor feature of a building. These are highly durable and require ongoing maintenance. Once installed, the position of this awning cannot be changed.
Retractable awnings are more popular than fixed awnings since the cover can open and close. This allows homeowners to open and close the awning, depending on the weather. When not in use, it can be closed to allow for extra space.
Besides the type of awning, you’ll need to choose the type of cover. Your awning installation professional will review your options with you, including availability and costs. The types of covers you can choose from include:
Wood, which is durable but can be damaged easily by rainwater and fire
Cotton offers flexibility, weatherproofing, and easy cleaning
Canvas is highly durable and is a good choice for retractable awnings
Metal is sturdy but is prone to rust
Polyester is easy to clean and is a more breathable option
Polycarbonate is highly resistant to UV rays and is difficult to damage
